The Prince of Wales told the children of the late rugby league legend Rob Burrow they should be “so proud of your father because he really was an incredibly brave and very special man”, as he opened a new motor neurone disease (MND) centre.
William met Burrow’s three children – Macy, Maya and Jackson – his wife Lindsey, and his fundraising team-mate Kevin Sinfield at the first purpose-built centre dedicated entirely to MND care, research and support – fulfilling a promise he made to him before he died last year.
